Ground Breaking: Waste-to-Energy Facility in South Sacramento

6/7/2012

On June 7th, Otto Construction, Clean World Partners and Atlas Disposal Industries broke ground on construction of a new high solids anaerobic digestion (AD) system and renewable natural gas fueling station. Clean World Partners' Organic Recycling Center at the South Area Transfer Station (SATS) in Sacramento will convert 25 tons of food waste per day collected by Atlas Disposal from area food processing companies, restaurants and supermarkets into renewable natural gas. In 2013, the facility will be expanded to process 100 tons of waste per day. Atlas' Renewable Natural Gas Fueling Station will use natural gas produced by the digestion system to fuel the company's clean-fuel fleet, as well as vehicles from area jurisdictions and agencies.
